About Me

I live in Bamburi Kiembeni and worked as a secretary at Mombasa hospital (private sector) in Dr. Kibwana's clinic. I decided to start my own business as a poultry farmer. I do the farming in my compound. I rare 500 chicken at an interval of three weeks. (I mainly deal with broilers). I have a family of three. (1 – College level, 1 –secondary level, 1 – primary level) Through this business I pay school fees for my three children and I plastered my house as well as cater for general house hold needs.

My Business

I supply the chicken to several hotels and restaurants around Mombasa. They includes; Pwani Paradise Hotel (Nyali), Island Breeze (Mombasa CBD), Shanny Restaurant (Food court) Mombasa CBD and local businessmen and residents within Bamburi. I sell one chicken @400 to the restaurant and local businessmen and residents @350/=. I buy one chick @60/=, purchase feeds of 50kg starter @3750/= and finisher of 50kg @3250/=. 500chicks consume around 25bags (10starters & 15finisher). Though there are a number of farmers in this field, most of them do this farming seasonally mainly on festive seasons e.g. Christmas, Easter. What make me maintain my customer is the constant supply of chicken through out the year.

Loan Proposal

TO expand my business by increasing more feeds so as to earn more market and thus get a larger income
To also increase the number of birds i rare and also be able to purchase health facilities in-case of outbreaks of diseases,when i get the loan and increase the number of birds i rare thus a larger income i will also be able to pay more attention to general basic needs and also progress with my ongoing project of constructing my house .
